Is my art good enough to get commissions? I did these for free for people to get a portfolio going (lemmy.world)

sometimes style is more important

I don't know about that.

The art lacks basic foundational understanding of anatomy. You have to understand the rules before you break them.

Rob liefeld got lucky during an era when we wanted something so wildly different. He's one of the rare times when style got him paid. But if you don't have the technical background, once the style becomes imitated, the lack of skill shows, just like much of Rob's work.
